AEROSOL TECHNOLOGY PROPELLANTS
AEROSOL TECHNOLOGY Propellants – Numbering Sys. v. Propellants are identified by a number v. Four rules for numbering
AEROSOL TECHNOLOGY Propellants – Numbering System: The Various Propellants are Usually Distinguished by a Number Rule 1: The First Digit on the Right Signifies the Number of Fluorine (Fl) Atoms in the Compound. Rule 2: The Second Digit From the Right is Numerically One More Than Number of Hydrogen (H) Atoms in the Compound. Rule 3: The Third Digit From the Right is Numerically One Less Than the Number of Carbon (C) Atoms in the Compound. When the Digit Is Zero, It is Omitted From the Number.
AEROSOL TECHNOLOGY Propellants – Numbering System: Rule 4: The number of chlorine (Cl) atoms in the compound is found by subtracting the sum of the fluorine and hydrogen atoms form of the atoms that can be connected to carbon. When only one carbon atom is involved, the total number of attached atoms is four. When two carbon atoms are present, the total number of attached atom is six.

AEROSOL TECHNOLOGY Global Warming: Warming Global temperatures are dangerously close to the highest ever estimated to have occurred in the past million years. Earth has been warming rapidly, nearly 0. 36º F (0. 2º C) in the last 30 years. If global temperatures go up to 1. 8º F ( 1º C) , It would be equal to the maximum temperature of the past million years This evidence implies that we are getting close to dangerous levels of human made (anthropogenic) POLLUTION.
AEROSOL TECHNOLOGY Human Influences on Global Warming: Warming Humans might be magnifying warming by adding to the greenhouse gases naturally present in the atmosphere. Fuel use is the chief cause of rising carbon dioxide levels. On the other hand, humans create temporary, localized cooling effects through AEROSOLS, such as smoke and sulfates from industry, which reflect sunlight away from earth
